Better-Than-Takeout Stir-Fried Udon

Ingredients for Better-Than-Takeout Stir-Fried Udon

• 2 matskedar vegetabilisk olja, delad

• 4 cups very coarsely chopped green cabbage (about 1/4 medium head)

• 2 (200g) packages instant udon noodles, flavour packets discarded

• 2 teaspoons toasted sesame oil

• 230g pork mince

• 5 spring onions, white and pale green parts coarsely chopped, dark green parts thinly sliced

• 2 teaspoons finely grated peeled ginger

• 1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes

• 80ml mirin (sweet Japanese rice wine)

• 80ml soy sauce

• 1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds, plus more for serving

Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Cook cabbage, tossing often, until edges are browned, about 4 minutes. Reduce heat to low and continue to cook, tossing often, until thickest parts of cabbage are tender, about 4 minutes longer. Remove from heat; set aside.

Place noodles in a large heatproof bowl (or pot if you don’t have one) and cover with 1450ml boiling water. Let sit 1 minute, stirring to break up noodles, then drain. Transfer noodles back to bowl and toss with sesame oil. Add reserved cabbage and wipe out skillet.

Heat remaining 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in skillet over medium-high and add pork, breaking up and spreading across surface of pan with a spatula or tongs. Cook pork, undisturbed, until underside is browned, about 3 minutes. Break up meat into smaller pieces and continue to cook, tossing, just until meat is cooked through and no longer pink, about 1 minute. Add chopped spring onions (the white and pale green parts), ginger, and red pepper flakes and cook, tossing often, until spring onions are softened and inside of skillet starts to brown, about 1 minute. Add noodle mixture, mirin, and soy sauce and cook, tossing constantly and scraping up browned bits, until noodles are coated in sauce, about 45 seconds. Remove from heat and mix in sliced spring onions (the dark green parts) and 1 tablespoon sesame seeds.

Divide noodles among bowls and top with more sesame seeds.
